This course is a
review of electrical engineering fundamentals required to pass the National
Council of Engineering Examiners Principles and Practice Examination in the
discipline of Electrical Engineering. It
is designed to aid the electrical engineer in preparation for the PE examination
by presenting an organized review of material ordinarily contained in a college
electrical engineering curriculum.
Primary emphasis will be on problem solving with orientation as close as
possible to the type of questions contained in the exam.
Prerequisite: Engineering or equivalent degree
4 years electrical
engineering experience
